Through Get It Prescribed, mebendazole costs $3.50 per 222 mg capsule plus a one-time $50 provider consultation fee, with no insurance needed and no membership. Retail pharmacy cash prices for mebendazole vary widely by pharmacy and change often, so if you are pricing a local pharmacy, call it for its current cash price and remember to add the cost of the visit you need to get the prescription.

Both parts of our price are published before you order. Your total is the $50 consultation fee plus $3.50 multiplied by the number of capsules the provider prescribes, and the medication is only charged if a prescription is issued.

What it costs here: the full breakdown

| Item | Cost | Notes | |---|---|---| | Provider consultation | $50, one time | Covers review for one or both medications, charged once per consultation | | Mebendazole 222 mg capsule | $3.50 each | Quantity determined by the reviewing provider | | Ivermectin 24 mg scored tablet | $3.00 each | Only if also requested and prescribed | | Membership or subscription | $0 | There is none | | Shipping and tracking | Included | Filled by a PCAB-accredited compounding pharmacy licensed in all 50 states and D.C. |

Nothing is added at checkout. Full details are on the pricing page, and you can get mebendazole prescribed online by completing the assessment. Service is available in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. For the step-by-step consultation process, see how do I get an ivermectin prescription online; the steps are the same for mebendazole. If you are pricing ivermectin too, see how much ivermectin costs without insurance.

A prescription is never guaranteed. An independent licensed provider reviews each request and prescribes only when it is clinically appropriate for a labeled use, based on your health history and current medications.

The mebendazole dispensed through Get It Prescribed is a compounded preparation made by a licensed compounding pharmacy for an individual patient. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness or quality. They are not generics of, or substitutes for, the brand-name product.

What drives the price you pay elsewhere

| Cost driver | Why it matters | |---|---| | Product type | A commercially manufactured tablet and a compounded preparation are priced on different bases. | | Pharmacy type | Chains, independents, and compounding pharmacies each set their own cash rates for the same request. | | Quantity dispensed | Cost scales with the number of units your provider determines is appropriate. | | Insurance coverage gaps | Antiparasitic medications are frequently placed on high formulary tiers, restricted by prior authorization or quantity limits, or excluded entirely. | | Discount cards | Card programs negotiate separate rates that may be above or below a pharmacy's own cash price. | | The visit itself | Any pharmacy price assumes you already hold a valid prescription. The clinical visit is a separate cost. |

Do not compare only the medication price

Mebendazole is prescription-only in the United States. Every cash price you find at a pharmacy assumes a prescription already exists, and getting one requires a clinician visit: urgent care, primary care, or telehealth. When you compare options, add the visit cost to the medication cost, or you are comparing half of one total against all of another. If your concern is pinworm specifically, an over-the-counter medicine also exists; see pinworm medicine: over the counter or prescription for how the two compare. Our guide to pinworm medicine for adults covers testing, treating the household and hygiene.

Ways to lower what you pay

If you are buying at a retail pharmacy, ask for both its cash price and its discount-card price and take the lower of the two. Ask your provider whether a different quantity fits the plan, since quantity is usually the largest single lever. And confirm the full total, visit plus medication, before you pay rather than after.

How much is mebendazole without insurance?

Through Get It Prescribed it is $3.50 per 222 mg capsule plus a one-time $50 consultation fee, and you only pay for medication if a provider prescribes it. At a retail pharmacy the cash price is set by each pharmacy and changes often, so call for a current quote and add the cost of the visit needed to get a prescription.

Does insurance cover mebendazole?

Sometimes, but coverage is inconsistent. Some plans cover it with prior authorization or annual quantity limits, some place it on the highest formulary tier so the copay is large, and some exclude it. Antiparasitic medications are a common coverage gap. Check your plan's formulary for the exact product and strength before assuming it will be covered. Get It Prescribed is cash-pay only and does not bill insurance.

Is compounded mebendazole the same medication?

It contains the same active ingredient, mebendazole, but it is not the same product as a commercially manufactured tablet. Compounded preparations are made by a licensed compounding pharmacy to a prescriber's specification and are not FDA-approved, so the FDA does not evaluate them for safety, effectiveness, or manufacturing quality. Your provider will explain what is being prescribed and why before you proceed.

How do I get a mebendazole prescription online?

Complete the online assessment, which asks about your symptoms, health history, and current medications. An independent licensed provider reviews it and may request a phone or video consultation depending on your state and clinical judgment. If a prescription is appropriate, it is sent to the partner pharmacy and shipped to you. See how it works for the full sequence, or start on the mebendazole page.

What happens to the $50 fee if I am not prescribed?

You are not charged for medication that is not dispensed. The consultation fee is non-refundable because the clinical review was still performed by a licensed provider. The exact terms are on the refund policy page.
